Eldritchadam brings us ClassipeintXL, a style LoRA for SDXL, capable of crafting images with the deep, textured allure of traditional oil paintings. From serene landscapes to dramatic portraits, each creation is imbued with rich layers, bold brushstrokes, and the timeless beauty only found in oil painted masterpieces.

The blocks showcase hand-picked images, carefully selected by a team of Curators picked from our community!
